    Anyone ever encounter a shiny Pokemon?

    in Pokémon

    Posted

    I've encountered far too many to fully remember. Duels at Dawn gets really mad at my insane luck when it comes to shiny pokemon.

    I remember finding a shiny Abra back in Crystal but it used teleport and that was the last I heard of shinies for a while. I found a Wingull and Marill in Ruby on seperate playthroughs. Came across a shiny Quagsire in the Safari Zone in Pearl and it promptly ran away. But I found a shiny Clefairy after backtracking through Mt. Coronet. I managed to snag a shiny Bagon in Platinum while trying to chain for a shiny Swablu and the chain was only at 20-something. My White Version is what holds my record of most shinies with 4 shiny pokemon in one playthrough. I got a Solosis found in some double grass while looking for a Trubbish for my dex, a Zorua using the Masuda Method, a Petilil while EV training for Sp. Attack by killing off Petilils (I laughed at the irony) and the very next day I caught a shiny Delibird while exploring the Giant Chasm.

    Your maximum damage output

    My record would have to be 354 damage. I forgot some of the details but it was a General (I think?) Walhart with capped str, limit breaker+aggressor+all stats +2 and a forged blessed lance on an Entombed. It was the most beautiful critical hit I have ever witnessed.

    I might try to top that some day.

    I was kind of annoyed by Breeders constantly re-challenging you myself, but look at it this way: It gives SOMEWHAT of a Vs. Seeker mechanic from FireRed, LeafGreen, Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, allowing for more trainers that can be re-battled and will grow stronger overtime.

    Though back in those days, you didn't have Audino lurking in shaking grass that you could kill for craploads of EXP. But hey, whatever helps you get more in-game money, right?

    I suppose so but White Treehollow/Black Tower seems to have that same thing although that's post-game so it could be why. I just wish that it won't be initiated by running into their line of sight though. Maybe talking to them or something would have been better. It's nice that they're trying to bring back the rematches but it's just not the same when it's forced like that. I'm not even prepared to fight when they see me. I've got a level 100 with me so it's not like they're any threat but it's just a nuisance when I'm rushing to get somewhere or exploring and I forgot that they want a rematch and run into them.

    On a lighter note, my friend was freaking out when he had his first rematch since the breeder didn't say so unless you spoke to them after the battle. He thought it was a glitch or something and we got a good laugh out of that.

    Is there any way to make them stop wanting a rematch? It's gotten so annoying that I can't walk around freely without some idiot breeder wanting to fight me again. It's gotten especially annoying since I'm doing those Funfest Missions and the timer still counts down during a battle. I hate it! It's also stupidly frustrating when there isn't an alternate route to detour around! I'm looking at you Breeder on Route 11 >:C

    Tracing

    in Far from the Forest...

    It's funny since I was just thinking on the topic of tracing not too long ago. It's definitely one of those things that can honestly land you in a sticky situation. I think that it can be okay as a learning tool since it doesn't seem to be much different from tracing by eye (i.e. drawing what you see)/references. Of course I don't think it would help if you don't learn from it. It really comes down to if you're really using it to understand something that eyeballing it just won't cut it. Using it as a cop-out is when I think it's unacceptable. I also think what makes things worse for this is how people are always trying to hide the fact that they did trace since lying to cover your ass never makes things any better. It really seems like it's no different from stencils or even straightedges since you're relying on a third party object to give you a certain result by drawing over it. Some people have honestly learned from tracing and no longer do it since they learned how the lines and dimensions work in a piece. I've never traced for a personal piece but my art class did as an exercise to get a feel for WHY the lines are where they were. It did help to understand Abe Lincoln's wrinkles and how wrinkles work XD

    tl;dr I think it's okay as a learning tool and if you're gonna post/show people a piece that is traced in any form you should cite it or else you're gonna get into more trouble later from it. Don't just use it as an excuse to look good. Use it and learn from how the lines and all the anatomy/dimensions are put into play.

    Something tells me that I might get yelled at for this. Good lawdy it's too late at night to think about serious replies.

    Hi and welcome to Serenes Forest, hope you enjoy the forums and your stay around here.

    Which FE and Pokémon games have you played?

    Anyways, hope you like this place.

    Hello there! Thank you very much!

    I have played FE 9-10, FE 11 and I'm taking a break on FE 7 by playing FE8. I would play others on my computer but it hates emulators and everything so I can't. For Pokemon I've played all the main ones and the Pokemon Mystery Dungeons.

    Hi. What games have you played?

    Fire Emblem? Or most games in general? For Fire Emblem, I've played FE9-10, FE11 and I'm taking a break on FE7 by playing FE8 at the moment. (Mostly because my friend took back FE7 for a bit to play it again and I wanted play something. I would like to play others but my computer hates emulators and all that and I'm not too big a fan on watching walkthroughs.
